Video players have been in a pretty good state for awhile after having a lot of issues, but unfortunately due to the update they now have a lot more problems that did not exist before.

For starters, the videos no longer auto play even when set to auto play. This pretty much makes every single object that has a video auto-loaded into it on the map, no longer work. Like a picture frame that uses a video for a moving image for example, that's now broken.

Secondly, Sync_VideoStream is incredibly unreliable. In my maps that use it, I have heard a variety of problems from people attempting to watch videos now with my video player. For some people, the video never starts. For other people, the video starts, but there is no audio at all. For others, there is audio but the video does not move. I am receiving a wide variety of complaints, not just among friends but of people who like my maps adding me and messaging me on discord asking me why it's now broken for them.

Sync_VideoPlayer is in a better state, yet still has its share of issues. While watching a YouTube video with around 40 people, around 8-10 of them could not see the video working at all. They tried clearing their cache and etc. but nothing worked.

Master controls are now broken as well meaning anyone can waltz in, hit the "stop" or "next" button, and screw up the entire video, because despite the video player being set to master controlled only, now any one can hit the button. And because there is no way to fast forward on Sync_VideoPlayer, if someone does this you're just SOL. This is exactly what happened to us at the very end of a 40 minute video when some random person came in and hit a button they should not have been able to.

The "Play" button SendRPC across every video player is now also broken. I didn't notice it at first because I usually always just hit the "Next" button, but now SendRPC Play is broken and it is impossible to start the videos using the play button, you need to hit either "Next" or "Previous"

So in summary, the video players have kind of gone back to being unstable disasters again. I had a feeling this was going to happen with the new update, so it is what it is, but I hope this is something that is going to get looked at and worked on and not thrown into the backburner for months so we just have broken video players for half the year like last year.

Currently using send rpc play and autostart does not work, instead having to use play index to start any video's
